My experience of uni as a black student

As a third year Journalism student at Liverpool John Moores University, I’m grateful to be in a position where I can attend university and study a course in an area that I have a passion for.

But being from an ethnic minority, I have always felt that I have to work particularly hard in comparison to my white counterparts - not only to be noticed but to be able to put myself forward for future job and work experience opportunities.
